Guests have the option of upgrading
their selection to a Royal Tea Set, which
includes an additional tier of artisan
cheeses and a glass of port wine. Younger
foodies can opt for the Prince & Princess
Tea Set, which comes with a selection
of children-friendly finger sandwiches, a
sweet scone, and bubblegum tea made with
real bits of bubblegum!
Any afternoon tea experience is incomplete
without an appreciation for the teas.
Fairmont offers teas that are exclusive
to the hotel group, working with the
Metropolitan Tea Company in Toronto
to create specialty tea blends. Oftentimes,
teas will be regionally different based on
the Fairmont location. The next time you’re
enjoying Tea at the Top of Fairmont Hotel
Vancouver, try their aromatic Ice Wine
Tea, a Sri Lankan black tea blend with
hints of white grape and exotic fruits, or
White Monkey Paw, a lighter white tea
blend from China with a smooth, delicate
finish.
If you’re looking for a fun occasion to dress
up, don’t miss their Sunday Best festivities.
Wear your favourite fascinators or bowties
to their Sunday afternoon tea for your
chance to win the best-dressed award – a
complimentary round of bubbly for you
and your table. Afternoon tea is offered
in two seatings on Friday, Saturday, and
Sunday during the winter months, and
daily during the summer months.
